Cleveland State (10-6) +2.5 (-110)

Robert Morris (10-6)

Won 80-68

Why Cleveland State Will Win

I’m on Cleveland State and the points here. This is a Cleveland State team that’s started to find some rhythm with 6 straight wins on the bounce, and when you look at percentages this season, the Vikings are the more reliable team on both ends of the floor. Robert Morris has been picking up some decent wins here and there, but I can’t forget the loss to Detroit, who is going to be one of the worst in the Horizon League this season. Cleveland State has been decent on the road and I think the Vikings nab a win here but I’ll take the free bucket to be safe. Give me Cleveland State and the points in this one

Saint Louis vs VCU Prediction

Lost 78-62

The VCU Rams have been the more consistent team, and they're at home where they're undefeated, but this line feels a bit rich. The Saint Louis Billikens have the talent to compete in the A10 this season, and they're finally starting to show it with four straight wins. Obviously, VCU is a steeper test, but the Billikens have been improved defensively during this winning stretch and have the experience to go on the road and make a statement. The Saint Louis Billikens have also covered four straight games. I'll grab the points with the road dog in this spot.
